Discover ECSA’s music creators playlist – Call for Works
The European Composer and Songwriter Alliance (ECSA) is pleased to launch a call for works to be considered for Discover ECSA’s music creators Playlist.
After two successful editions in 2022 and 2023, ECSA will once again create a collection of compositions and songs coming from the ECSA member organisations, to be published on 21st June 2024 on World Music Day. The goal is to promote European composers and songwriters and increase their visibility to the wider public. With this playlist, ECSA aims at actively guiding the public in discovering recent releases from numerous European countries and creating its very own, one of a kind “European Music Listening Experience”. The playlist will help raising awareness of music creators in the ECSA network.
The theme of this year’s playlist is ”Celebrating female composers”. Since several years, ECSA has been active to strive for more gender equality and diversity in the music industry with various initiatives. However, we still see an underrepresentation of female composers and songwriters in music. This year’s theme of “Discover ECSA’s music creators playlist” will therefore celebrate the works of our members’ female composers. By putting their music in the spotlight, we hope to foster a more diverse and inclusive landscape for music creators.
Playlist release: 21 June 2024.
